This past Wednesday Linx held its annual board meeting in West Yellowstone, Montana. Many shareholders, providers and staff converged to help decide what the next moves are for the cooperative, and to further define its vision. We have several important announcements:
1) This summer in Yellowstone, look to Linx service providers for your transportation needs throughout the park. Last year's pilot program provided the insight and experience needed to re-calibrate our service plans and better serve those who want to get the Yellowstone experience without the responsibility or liability of private transport.
2) As our membership grows, so too does the capability of our web store. We are working to streamline the booking abilities already available and integrate new carriers into the schedule to make transfers as efficient as possible!
3) Linx will be experimenting with new technologies to make your ride simple and intuitive. These include on board GPS and wifi services so that you can surf the web and track your progress (or that of a bus you're about to take), and are testing the viability of smart cards that you can pre-load and swipe whenever you want to be on the move.
Linx is the first organization of its kind to address the needs of rural transit and connectivity. While still growing and developing, the lessons learned and the drive to succeed that our providers and staff have shown has been nothing short of inspiring. With your support and feedback, we'll become the standard for travel around the Greater Yellowstone Region. Book a trip or drop us a line at linx.coop!
